I have scrapped the toothpick measure, but i had the luxury of an industrial meat-slicer... I cored the apples and set them to almost paper thin and sliced them with the hole in the center, like rings...easier for the rosebud look. The filling was different than your traditional apple pie filling, and to me that is the key to the flavor. I will give you one hint, and that is Ginger. Last note: It is really called "Apple Ruffle Tart". Kudos to you and thanks for all the compliments. I have a new web show too on www.poprockcandymountain.com ---<BR/><BR/>THanks! and keep baking !<BR/><BR/>Twinkle VanWinklesugarmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17344567587923179875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106989651267469607.post-13666884523097763252008-03-15T16:12:00.000-06:002008-03-15T16:12:00.000-06:00I guess the Food Network recipe was just inspired ...I guess the Food Network recipe was just inspired by Ms. Twinkle Van Winkle.

I figure "this too shall pass" as the baby gets older. <BR/><BR/>Hi Katie,<BR/>This recipe looks similar, but the pie I saw on Fine Living came from a bakery and their only description was that she rolled the apple slices like I've done, put them on toothpicks, removed the toothpicks and painted it with the cinnamon mixture. Gale Gand's recipe looks good too and would probably be much easier to assemble. Thanks for finding it!<BR/><BR/>HollyPheMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18416960108949176508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106989651267469607.post-54502149566874671252008-03-15T14:50:00.000-06:002008-03-15T14:50:00.000-06:00Is this the recipe? http://www.foodnetwork.com/foo...Is this the recipe? http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_25074,00.html<BR/>Gotta love Google!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00788350116801648626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106989651267469607.post-91767384320192425482008-03-15T13:21:00.000-06:002008-03-15T13:21:00.000-06:00Wow Holly, you have WAY more patience than I do - ...Wow Holly, you have WAY more patience than I do - but those apple curls do look gorgeous and the pie looks very yummy. I was talking to my doctor yesterday (who is also a friend) and she was talking about a paper that she published on sleep deprivation in mothers (she wrote this when her twins were under 1). It is a big problem that is seldom recognized and can literally drive people crazy, according to her. So I hope you can get some good rest very soon!Laurie Constantinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04662040688336742830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106989651267469607.post-74418513512731771472008-03-14T21:58:00.000-06:002008-03-14T21:58:00.000-06:00Fine Living is a great channel and I raise my glas...Fine Living is a great channel and I raise my glass to you toast you for your effort!

When I was 8 months pregnant with an almost two year old on the outside my mom had a huge 60th Birthday party. I made a variation on a Wolfgang Puck 17 layer cake which I thought I would drape fondant over. I had never made fondant and I still haven't. I did make a huge mess. The cake was fine in the end. But there were some fabulous flops.One Hot Messhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09246638672297932833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106989651267469607.post-70209571045695235392008-03-10T15:17:00.000-06:002008-03-10T15:17:00.000-06:00I love the apple swirls - you are truly ambitious ...I love the apple swirls - you are truly ambitious to try to figure this out yourself!!
